HanEuem, a cozy and nicely decorated restaurant, serves traditional Korean dishes with a modern twist. Located in the heart of Koreatown, the restaurant offers a range of popular items, including the must-try Kimchi Cheese Bokkeumbap for kimchi and cheese lovers. The delicious banchan, or side dishes, feature standout items like fish cake. Other popular choices include Braised Wagyu Beef Back Ribs and Pork Belly Kimchi Pancakes. While the flavorful food can be salty, the generous portions make it suitable for sharing. The friendly service and the newly renovated, clean, and modern ambiance contribute to the overall dining experience.
The restaurant is praised for its authentic Korean comfort food, with dishes that are full of flavor and beautifully presented. Customers have particularly enjoyed the octopus samgyeopsal and spicy braised short ribs, as well as the fresh and delicious banchan. The staff is described as friendly and attentive, further enhancing the overall experience.
One customer describes HanEuem as a "hidden gem" that deserves more than 5 stars, praising the upscale yet comfortable ambiance and the next-level Korean cuisine that pays homage to its roots while elevating every bite. The soy and spicy marinated crabs, LA Galbi, wagyu beef, and spicy short ribs are all highlighted as standout dishes, with the pancakes also receiving high praise.
